It's not me, it's you.
This review is for the Nintendo Switch version

I won't be doing a full review of this as I won't be playing it any longer than the hour or two that I did.

I normally like roguelite games quite a bit and the plot description was charming to me. I remember seeing a ton of ads for it when I worked at Gamestop. Finally tried it out and was so disappointed. Unintuitive controls and combat kept me from digging into what seems to be an interesting plethora of usable characters and spells.

Got it for only 4 dollars and still returned it for it for a different game, which is very rare for me.
